night, we see some of the heaviest rain hitting places like new orleans and middle georgia, that's macona, as well, the florida panhandle, and there there is a potential for flash flooding through wednesday, in fact. we could see anywhere from three to five inches of rain coming down pretty quickly, and that could lead to the risk of flash flooding, and just to note that farther north we're also tracking the threat for six plus inches of snow through wednesday in parts of the northeast. that's a look at the forecast >> somara: that's a look at your local forecast. and just for the record, guys, i too have an iphone. i am team blue. >> janai: team blue. >> somara: my dad has green too. so i understand. >> whit: it's really complicated. yeah, the text messages with mom. she thinks it's my wife, and then it gets out of hand. >> janai: what? >> whit: good luck. this is the android/iphone text messages. >> janai: she thinks it's your wife? >> whit: because the contacts don't line up. i didn't want to get too deep in the weeds. but here we go. >>> let's get to the wnba. >> janai: shall we? >>

this is actually the radar, so we can see storms from atlanta, down through middle georgia, macon, tohe florida panhandle. everywhere in yellow, a tornado watch is currently in effect. that includes columbia, south carolina, to north carolina and savannah, georgia, in low country. the coming hours, this line of storms will continue to sweep into the carolinas by about lunch time and then make its way bringing heavy rain to places like the mid-atlantic, the dmv area and virginia. important to keep in mind, the biggest concern, the biggest threats this morning with this system, damaging wind, large hail and there is still a chance for a few tornadoes. gio? >> gio: so much severe weather and it looks like it will continue. now to florida and the high speed train disaster a least 15 people injured in a collision with a fire truck. this say pretty new train. >> yeah, that's right. authorities say the firefighters were responding to an emergency when their truck was hit and the terrifying moments were all caught on camera. this morning, heart-stopping video shows the moments a brightline pa

we saw a citizens turning out the to protest against that low macon standing up, resisting that to those measures. and people have been totally up here as well in the center square in downtown they've been singing songs listening to speeches, addressing political slogans. but many people, it just will have access to south korea is no stranger to sweep protests. there is a very healthy people going out and protesting, and they have been out in the all not seen on goods of thousands, even in millions risk prior to this with previous presidencies that have gone wrong to the company brawling and instead of those. and so, and we assume that people there is an expectation now depending on what happens if . 6 president, you does, of whether we might see the same again because there is a wide sense of indignation about what took place this time yesterday. won't people see as being the biggest, the tax on democratic institution in any 50 from crisis to celebration in a matter of hours, the south koreans pulled onto the streets after the presidency. and so the old back down reversing his decision

we're in our third version of the rat car, collaborating with a researcher, john mcmanus, at randolph-maconollege. and we call it our rodent operated vehicle. our rov and so we have learned, along with the rats, how to construct a car. that's an interesting question. had to channel my inner rat about thinking about how it would approach the car and what the dashboard would look like, and how it would activate that lever. so we're not looking at human factors engineering, but rat factors engineering to understand how they can readily engage with this car. so we went you're correct from a cereal container to this more sophisticated rov. >> it's awesome. it looks fun. i think it probably brings a lot of joy to the researchers because it's brought i can't even tell you you've made them jumping up and down. boris has been so excited about this story for days. doctor lambert, this has the potential to change the uber experience as we know it altogether. >> well, we've tried that. we're interested in the passenger versus the driver, and we call that the uber study. so we're working on that. you le

he had befriended the allman brothers band out of macon, georgia, where capricorn records was at, ande used that connection to his benefit. he played softball with willie nelson and and so he grew here was and his only real mistake and a big mistake in running was when he did an interview for playboy magazine because jody powell and ham jordan thought, maybe we need he wasn't ranking high with men. women liked him more than men, and they thought playboy would work. and alas, carter made that slip up of well, yes, i've lusted in my heart for women before and it it stuck to him. and later in life, here he was 90 and doing a book signing, and women would be in line and saying, mr. president, you can lust and in your heart any time. for me as a joke, it stayed with them for the rest of his life. >> wow. uh, an incredible life for sure. douglas brinkley, thank you so much for helping us better understand carter's legacy. thank you. and coming up, new details about that fiery plane crash in south korea. the pilot's final words before impact next. >> and it has been one wild year. >> i know

dad's first date was my father invited my mom to a concert they were doing in, in, uh, in georgia, in maconi believe. >> and it was, uh, for president for then governor carter. and that was their first date. so, um, yeah, it's really interesting stuff. >> very special indeed. devon, what about jimmy carter? made your father want to endorse him for president well, i think at the time, you know, like, like post-vietnam and all that. >> i think that the, you know, the hippie movement and a lot of the people that were in that kind of counterculture were looking for somebody that was, you know, geared more towards humanity and a little less towards, you know, war and and corporation interests. and, you know, i think that jimmy was really kind of a, you know, just one of the guys to them. and, um, i think, i think it kind of made him a little bit hip, you know, to, to the younger voters. >> yeah. good point. duane, i know you first met president carter when you were just 13 years old at game five of the 1991 world series in atlanta. what do you remember about that moment? >> yeah, we were you kno

right now, we've got warnings that are in effect just east of macon, where we've had winds up to 60mph reported. that is some damaging winds. and then the line stretches down to the florida panhandle, panama city, with a severe thunderstorm warning again for some 60 mile per hour winds. as this line continues to progress eastward. now, this is after yesterday was just so active and destructive. more than 150 storm reports, 112 of them wind more than 34 reported tornadoes. and that threat again continuing to shift east today as this line continues to charge eastward. now, the intensity of these storms is coming down as it moves east. we have a level two out of five risk that slight risk instead of the heightened risk that we had yesterday. but we're still looking at the threat of damaging winds, isolated tornadoes and large hail from charlotte down towards the florida panhandle. that line continues to progress east through mid-morning again. that's why that watch was just issued until 1:00 this afternoon for parts of the carolinas. then we'll continue to find it through the end of the d

so if they can't access it because oh well, when i was in macon i voted this way and i could vote after work up until 7:00. but apparently you can't do that in savannah. and so when we look at it's wonderful that it's decentral ized and states have the ability to do it, but it's also a curse because without that centralized nation, you don't have control. and in 40 countries that we work in, there's a central election commission. so, you know, when people are misbehaving, you know who to blame. and you know that election commission is going to hold them accountable. that's just not the way it works in the us and so good news is you can't hack every election across the united states at the same time because they're all so different. the bad news is, you some of them can get hacked and they could be the important ones and people can't vote as easily as they should be able to. and so those are things that we have to actually pull together and make sure people understand how you vote in your neighborhood, how that happens, how your voice can be heard. and that's a really interesting point.

macon 23 degrees. tallahassee at 27 degrees. huntsville into the mid 20s as well. parts of the carolinas as well. wilmington wake up to 22 degrees this morning. now, we've got some changes on the way. it will be a bit of a roller coaster ride temperatures over the next couple days. still this afternoon, we get warmer in some of those regions. 60s in tallahassee. 39 degrees in new york. these numbers are below normal for this time of year. but look back to the west. we have kansas city running 13 degrees above normal, into the mid 50s. even chicago warmer than they should be with the low 40s. that starts to spread east as we get into tomorrow. your sunday 46 degrees in detroit. we have 50s for indianapolis. huntington into the mid 50s as well. and temperatures across parts of the plains 60 degrees for lincoln. more than 20 degrees above where we should be for early december across this region. then that starts to work its way a little closer to the east coast. we've got tuesday looking into the low 50s in new york city. mid 50s by wednesday. we've got mid f 60s for
